Nuttall's Woodpecker
I'm not 100% sure on the ID, but this is another photo I captured while visiting Camano Island, Wa over the 4th of July.

I like it, Ryan, I think you're right on the ID, probably a juvenile. Nice capture.

Fantastic shot! Camamo Island? Where?

Catherine, on the north side of the island. My brother-in-law lives there and has a few acres frequented by quite a few birds. I always get some a few good snaps there.

Great shot Ryan. I like the comp and you did a nice job handling the large dynamic range in the image.

Wonderful. You might try blurring the background a tish more for better "bokeh." Otherwise, this is a winner.
